Introduction

McCormick MTX155 Row-Crop Tractor

The McCormick MTX155 is a row-crop tractor produced in Doncaster, England, between 2000 and 2003. It represents a key model in the MTX series, designed to provide high-performance power and versatility for demanding agricultural tasks.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a Perkins 1006-60TWI 6-cylinder, 6.0L turbocharged and intercooled diesel engine. It generates a rated power of 160 hp (119.3 kW) at 2200 RPM and produces a maximum torque of 489 lb-ft (663.1 Nm) at 1400 RPM. The engine features a liquid-cooling system and a dual paper element air cleaner to ensure operational longevity.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The MTX155 is equipped with a standard 16-speed forward and 12-speed reverse transmission featuring a four-speed power shift in four ranges. An optional creeper gear configuration expands this to 32 forward and 24 reverse speeds for low-speed precision work. Power is delivered to all four wheels via an electro-hydraulic wet disc clutch and a mechanical differential lock.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system utilizes a pressure flow compensating pump capable of a 32 GPM (121.1 lpm) total flow, with 28 GPM (106.0 lpm) available for remote SCVs. The rear Category III hitch is managed by an electronic lower link draft sensing system, providing a lift capacity of 15,290 lbs (6935 kg) at 24 inches behind the lift point.

Operator Environment and Dimensions

The tractor features a standard cab equipped with air conditioning. It operates with power steering and hydraulic wet disc brakes. With a wheelbase of 112.2 inches (284 cm) and an overall width of 90.6 inches (230 cm), the machine is designed for stability in field operations.

Conclusion

The McCormick MTX155 is a robust, high-capacity tractor tailored for heavy-duty row-crop applications. Its combination of a powerful Perkins engine, high-flow hydraulics, and multiple transmission options makes it a suitable machine for professional agricultural operations requiring reliable tractive force and implement control.
